*'''Keep''' I fail to see how this is original research. It cites a great deal of secondary sources and it is not making any unfounded claims or analysis. I do not know much about the subject other than it exists and this is a valid area of research. [[User:Kotepho|kotepho]] 05:08, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
 
*'''Massively rewrite and cleanup.''' Tim@, to be honest this looks like a college project or a first attempt at writing a review article for a journal. It's not original research but it is highly inappropriate for Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not ''Bioinformatics''. Articles here should be intended for a general audience. Ideally you would explain in terms a high schooler or college freshman could understand, 1) what are protein-protein interactions, 2) why it is useful to be able to predict them with a computer, and 3) the general principles involved. The only wikipedia article I have ever seen with 150 references was on [[Rathergate]], and that because it is so controversial. You should aim for no more than a dozen, preferably review articles from easy to read journals like ''Current opinions in ______''. You also need to review the Manual of Style and become more familiar with writing wiki-like articles. My recommendation is that you voluntarily withdraw the article and copy it into your user space (see [[WP:USER]].) User pages are a great way to work on a complex article or figure out how to write a wiki article and they are not subject to (most of) the content guidelines of main article space.
